Chicken Piccata

I love chicken piccata! I never attempted to make it until my sister ‘whipped up’ a ‘deconstructed’ chicken piccata using cut up turkey breast during my trip to Italy. She also omitted the capers, but I love her and she was due with her first baby so she was quickly forgiven 😉 When I realized how simple it was, I came home and made it within the first week of being back. Now it is part of my quick and easy dinner options. I have even used my sister’s technique and cut the chicken into pieces instead of flattening the breasts out into cutlets.

Chicken piccata is lite and bright tasting, but, needs something on the side to cut the acidity. I highly recommend roasted veggies like the ones pictured here. Potatoes, carrots, brussel sprouts and mushrooms are a delicious combination!
